To select the personality of the adapter:

to select Personality.
2. Use the left or right arrow keys to select the desired personality.

Personality setting has changed since the last boot.
Configuring the Custom Personality Selection
The Custom personality allows you to select the protocol type for each function. The
first function on the port must always be assigned the NIC personality. iSCSI and FCoE
personalities may only be enabled on one function per adapter port.
Note: There cannot be two iSCSI functions and two FCoE functions on a single port.
To select the Custom personality:
1. From the Configure Controller screen, use the up or down arrow keys to select
Personality.
2. Use the left or right arrow keys to select the Custom personality and press <Enter>.
A pop-up menu is displayed.
3. Select the desired personality for the appropriate function using the arrow keys.
As mentioned previously for the Custom personality, iSCSI and FCoE personalities
may only be enabled on one function per adapter port.
4. Press <F7> to save.
Note: Changing the Personality setting requires a reboot before the change will
take effect. A reboot will occur when you exit the PXESelect utility if the
Personality setting has changed since the last boot.
